Thread: Set Your Tivo, VCR or DVD Recorder!

if it's the same one it also shows guys going in and shaving in front of a two way mirror. They wouldn't like my shaving style........step out of the bath/shower, strop and shave commando style.

The design team also put spy cams in the razors so they could see how each blade cuts and how the skin reacts.

This would be simply awesome! Now I NEED to see it.

For some reason, the torrent download listed above is not working for me. It downloads the file rather quickly, but does not open. Gives me an error message, "...is not a movie."

Anyone else having this problem?

Sounds like a show I saw tonight on the History channel here in my hotel. I think it was modern marvels or something about the sharpest tools on earth. It had a section about razors and started with straights (showing some honing and stropping) but progressed to show cartridge razors being made. It started talking about how much sharper they are, etc. Load of bull. The diagram they showed of the cartridge razor blade's three bevels made the final edge look like 140 degrees or so.

I caught that last night as well. I've seen it before. It was Modern Marvels. There was a very small piece on straight razors. The modern manufacturing process of disposables was interesting, as was the nearly $10 billion we spend annually on shaving stuff.

That's a unfortunate. I've downloaded the file using that torrent, and the file works. I'm guessing you're missing a codec, specifically the xvid codec which you can download here.

Edit: For anyone wondering, codec is a portmanteau of coder and decoder (or compressor and decompressor) and basically is something that helps your media player figure out how to display a media file.

I suspect that what you did was download the .torrent control file. What you need to do is OPEN that .torrent file with a torrent program like, say, Azureus. Google for it and install it.

My download has sound no vision

Try vlc media player, it's free online. It should fix the sound/video issue and if you watch avi movies on your computer. Look in to a Phillips Divx dvd player to watch that format on your tv. I burn avi movie downloads as a "data disc" in nero or roxio right onto a cd and the Phillips plays them just fine. Popular movie torrents in avi format can download in about a half an hour or less for me and that beats the wait for a 4.7 gig dvd to download IMHO.

Same here... no cable (the wife pulled the plug)... If i can get this by torrent i would be happy.

I downloaded and watched the video. Cool program overall.
